Is Cruiserweight the most talented division in Boxing right now?

Cruiser and flyweight are clearly the two strongest divisions in boxing, atm. Toss up as to which one is stronger.

 

Cruiser is very entertaining but Flyweight is the best at the moment.

 

I dunno, man. I think Flyweight has the better champions, but top to bottom Cruiser might have a bit more depth.

 

How do you know that Usyk is based in Moscow? I for one would be very surprised given that he is an Ukrainian patriot who doesn't seem to like the Russians.

 

Not sure. I know flyweight is a stronger division than cruiserweight, but I don't know if cruiserweight is better than light heavyweight. LHW has two p4p fighters, Ward and Kovalev.

 

LHW is not very deep. Cruiserweight is arguably the deepest division out of all

 

The drop-off is fairly precipitous once you get past the first couple of fighters, though. Alvarez, Chilemba et al are solid but not spectacular.

In terms of depth throughout the Top 10, I'd say flyweight and cruiser still have it over LH, at this moment.

 

Yeah, but then you have very good prospects/contenders who are all moving fast.

Bivol
Gvodzyk
Beterbiev
Shabranskyy
Salamov
Yildirim (But I think he might be moving down to SMW)
Benavidez
McCumby

Some of these guys already proved they are a threat to the top fighters, no doubt. I think in a few years it's going to be a very good division.

 

I get you! :good

Good argument.

 

:deal

 

I don't rate any of the cruiserweights much other than Usyk, but they are all entertaining.

I think it's a toss up between Flyweight and Light Heavyweight.
Ward, Kovalev, Beterbiev, Stevenson, Gvozdyk, Bivol, Shabranskyy
and then second tier guys like Suhotsky, Sillakh, Alvarez, Barrera, Braehmer
..That is a beast.

Flyweight is the clear victor out of Cruiser and Fly IMO.
